How did yall eat salmon growing up? Did yall eat it at all? We had salmon and rice or salmon croquettes. My ex didn't know what a croquette was. I said, lawd, what did yall EAT??? Until he met me, he had never had a plum, never had tuna salad, it was a mess. But I digress...
Also, one of my white friends has never had fried corn! Now, I thought ERE'BODY had had fried corn, you know, SPICY! Do yall eat that where you live?
What about meatballs and gravy? Sometimes, we used to have rice and gravy, and my dad would put big meatballs in the gravy.
Did yall do "special" things with soul food? Example, neck bones. When I was little, I was embarrassed that we ate these. Now, I haven't had any since my parents died in '93, and I would give anything for some neckbones and some boiled potatoes. Anyway... my mother used to make spaghetti and neckbones! MAN!! It was SO good! That's what I meant by "special," LOL!
I know yall are like, lawd, this chile must be hungry, lol, but I have two more.
Does anyone eat fried chicken gizzards? I LOVE THEM!! I haven't had these in a long while, either.
Last one, how do yall pronounce kielbasa? In my house, we called it kaboski (kuh-bahs-kee). I love this, too!
If you grew up in a household like mine, where soul food was served DAILY, do you still cook it today? I don't.
It's just not healthy. But sometimes, I get cravings, and for like a week, I'll eat fried pork chops, fried chicken, mac 'n' cheese, candied yams, greens, potato salad, corn bread... ARGH!!!! I think I'm having a soul food craving!!
And I have none of that stuff in the house right now.
